Welcome

Elmbridge is a borough with people and community at its heart. It is a borough with energy and enthusiasm, diverse businesses, and communities and plenty of commons, woodlands, and green spaces. Elmbridge as an organisation is no different with its diverse, committed, and passionate workforce wanting to make a difference to the communities they support.

It’s an exciting time to join us, as we have just launched Vision 2030, our Vision for Elmbridge, which encapsulates its sense of community and passion. This is also a Vision with environmental and financial sustainability at its heart. Elmbridge is a financially resilient Council with a track record for strong financial management, supported by a dedicated and committed Finance team.

There are plenty of initiatives and projects to test your technical, project management and listening skills and you will never get bored. We have also committed to a programme of transformation within the Council including service transformation with a focus on meeting the need in the community. Our commitment is to build on our strengths and ensure an unwavering focus on the areas where we still need to improve, be it technology, systems, or processes.

This is an incredibly exciting career opportunity for an experienced and capable Finance Professional, someone who gets excited working with numbers but also in supporting service areas in delivering their priorities. Someone who is adaptable in their leadership style, and who knows the value of supporting staff in their work to draw the very best from them.

I really enjoy working in Elmbridge and so would you.

Good luck in your application.
